SOLD: Giia LARA roll statement necklace from Etsy





SOLD TO LUCKY WINNER, RITA.

I discovered the wonderfully quirky and sophisticated designs of Giia on LoGE. I had never seen anything as outrageous and delicious as her designs. Here is up for sale a necklace I bought from her that will look great with fluid jersey dresses in architectural shapes by Rick Owens, Hussein Chalayan or Yohji Yamamoto (that are always being sold on Totokaelo and La Garconne)--and with the Chie Mihara shoes I'm selling below. Giia no longer seems to sell this style, but here is the original listing on an archived page from Etsy (with Giia looking gorgeous and impeccably chic modeling it).

I ordered mine in "Trafalgar," which is actually very similar to the "sky blue" shown in the Etsy photo. The necklace is handcrafted with whorls of felt clustered together. I find it hard to resist staring at and touching those multiple whorls. And yet the overall effect is quite elegant, as Giia's pictures of herself wearing it will prove.

I wore mine 3x.
Paid: 85.00 (including $20.00 for shipping and handling from Italy).
Asking: $30.00 plus shipping (which will be considerably less than shipping from Italy). I ship only to the US.

Please leave your email in the comments section if you are interested in this baby. The winner will be selected in a random drawing on September 13.
